Now the cyber threat stakes are just as high for businesses as they have been for the military for decades. Join this webinar to see how your cybersecurity efforts measure against military cyberescurity practices that have proven effective in the most contentious cyber threat scenarios.

CyberDefenses was founded by military cybersecurity veterans in 2001 and since then, we've worked to protect military installations around the world. Now, in response to the escalating threats facing businesses, we're making this same level of advanced security available to non-military organizations.

In this webinar, we'll share some of some of the military best practices that we use to protect our clients. You'll be able to see how your program compares and benefit from our lessons learned to strengthen your cybersecurity efforts.

For most security pros, the challenge isn’t not having enough data about potential security events. The problem is so much data coming from millions of endpoints that the real threat is buried and undetectable. The companies that have recently experienced high profile breaches have learned it’s easy for a real threat to go unrecognized and wreak devasting havoc on your systems, your customers and your business. Ray Bradbury was right when he said, “Too much of anything isn’t good for anyone.”

Is it possible to efficiently sift through the mountains of security alert data collected daily to hone in on what indicates a real incident? And even more importantly, is it possible to accomplish this quickly enough to be able to immediately mitigate the potential damage?

Fortunately, the answer to these questions is “Yes, it is possible.” Join CyberDefenses CTO Damon Fleury for a webinar in which we explore the threat hunting methodologies and tools that enable you to identify the true threats lurking in your security alerts, and to recognize them early enough to take effective action. We’ll cover:
•Setting up a process that works to isolate the potential threats
•The skillset needed to determine what warrants immediate attention
•The typical structure of an incident and tell-tale markers
•Best practices for threat hunting and detection
•Effective incident response workflows and resources

The Department of Defense compliance deadline was the last day of 2017; now that 2018 is here, what does that really mean for DFARS and FAR contractors? DoD revised their message in testimony to the Senate Armed Services Committee by throwing a lifeline to vendors and contractors. Join us for a discussion on what that lifeline is and how to move forward in the new federal contract reality.

Do you have federal contracts? If you do, then NIST 800-171 has probably started to get your attention. The DoD has required that all of its vendors attest to their compliance with this standard by the end of 2017. All other federal agencies will follow suit within the next 3-5 years.

What is involved in assessing whether you meet this standard? What does it mean to declare your compliance level and how do you accomplish this?

In this 30m webinar, CyberDefenses' CTO Damon Fleury will outline what you can expect from the 800-171 process, based on our experiences from our own assessments and those of our clients. This webinar will be informative to anyone performing their own assessment, as well as to those still trying to figure out where to start with 800-171 process.
